Forcing each user to maintain an always-online machine is not really a good solution compared to just... having the history available to everyone, always.

If it's an internal chat system then the server admin just runs that second layer on top for those who want it, they're all multi user

running 2 programs to provide another higher level interface? not really.

IRCd - real time, ram buffering of messages. Quassel - reads and stores buffers in a database, allows users to retrieve them.
